Popular gospel singer Mercy Chinwo, has filed a N2bn lawsuit on upcoming Afrobeat singer, Obidiz, for using her name in his song titled ”Mercy Chinwo” , released on 10th February, 2023.

She claims he used her name, pictures and videos in an offensive way that has triggered negative reactions she is not comfortable with, thus the ”Cease and Desist” letter which was issued by her lawyer ”Law Corridor”, dated 23rd March, 2023, was sent, asking him to avoid using her name or image on any of his promotional content and music.

Mercy, demands that the music be taken down from all streaming platforms and if he fails to meet up with her terms, he’d be dragged to court and made to pay N2bn as damage.
